- No intentional AI usage in production. Programs with AI features ok if those features are not used. Note that this is not just generative AI, but ALL AI. You may be surprised what features are supported by AI, such as automatic transcription, automated green screen effects, etc.
- Specialized AI tools where there is NO generative AI. These can apply an after effect, filter, or change only details or cleans the presentation of your work. This can include fixing single word grammar mistakes or the creation of non-central automated accessibility features like captions or transcripts. This level also includes other traditional machine learning models that are not generative (ie not generating text, images, sound, or video).
- AI idea development, organization, structuring or outlining, where no AI generated content is used directly in the final product. Use for directions, feedback, or other tasks only with NO copy/pasting directly from AI output to the final product.
- AI generation of building block components (even if edited or traced). If any AI generation reaches the final product, it is at least this level. AI generation likely does not change the overall content or meaning of the work and can include tasks such as cleaning up small components of background with AI generative fill or AI enhancement of voice.
- AI generation of major components or ideas (even if edited or traced). This is more than incidental use, where the content of the work would have been different if AI was not involved. Authorship or otherwise credit would be required if a human had made similar contributions to the work of that of an AI.
- AI generation of the large part or whole work (even if edited or traced). No matter how complex the prompt is (including supplying reference materials in prompting), if the work is copy/pasted with only minimal human intervention. Also anytime there is consumers can use AI directly in the product or content reaching the user with no human oversight.
